This round’s bullet is lightweight at 100 grains because it actually contains no lead. It’s a solid copper bullet, which minimizes barrel fouling and has the toughness required to penetrate a range of urban barriers without losing a significant amount of its weight. An overpressure 38 Special round with so light a bullet also boasts a very fast muzzle velocity: 1,275 fps, which conveys a relatively high muzzle energy of 361 ft lbs! That’s more than adequate for self-defense.
Without a nose cavity, the HoneyBadger can’t become clogged with debris that would have cost it efficacy. It relies on a unique “drill bit” nose profile, which scoops up soft tissues and then rapidly jets them outward in lateral directions to create a massive wound cavity. It’s terminal performance like expansion, but without the actual expansion!
Black Hills chooses select brass cases, primers and propellant for their HoneyBadger loads. Trust this ammo in the revolver that you trust with your life!
